The Almighty Dominance novel Chapter 461

Baroness Wolfsbane rose from her seat. “It’s a joyful day,” she declared. “Sofina has secured the collaboration with the Eden Group for our family.”

Beatrix crossed her arms. “Grandmother, since Sofina’s the one who landed the deal. You promised that whoever secured the contract would be named Deputy Chair of the Wolfsbane Estate. So, who will it be?”

The Baroness’s expression stiffened. Her silver brows arched slightly as her mind turned.

Yes, she had made that promise—whoever brought the deal home would become director of the family company.

But Sofina Scheinwald? The woman she never favored? The very wife of that useless man she could barely tolerate? The thought soured in her chest. What if Sofina gained too much power—what if she slipped out of her control?

“Grandmother,” Beatrix pressed, voice sharp and direct. “Are you truly going to appoint Sofina Scheinwald as Baroness-Designate?”

The Baroness’s smile vanished. “I gave my word to Sofina. Why shouldn’t I appoint her?”

Beatrix stepped forward, her eyes blazing with defiance. “Because you can’t make her the Baroness-Designate and Deputy Chair of the Wolfsbane Estate!” she snapped. “She doesn’t deserve it! Her last name isn’t even Wolfsbane!”

“Why not?” the Baroness snapped back. “She’s earned it. She brought in a collaboration with the Eden Group. Her contribution is undeniable.”

Annabella spoke up hesitantly. “Grandmother… you don’t even know how Sofina won that contract. She must have done something… inappropriate.”

The Baroness turned her gaze on her granddaughter, “Inappropriate? Like what, exactly?”

Annabella faltered. She hadn’t expected to be challenged so directly. Her eyes darted around the room, looking for an escape.

“Maybe we should call Heinrich,” she blurted finally. “He was with her during the Eden Group negotiation. He must know something.”

The Baroness leaned back in her chair. “Very well,” she said. “Let’s hear what Heinrich has to say.”

Without wasting a second, Annabella tapped her bracelet and called Heinrich, switching it to loudspeaker so everyone in the room could hear every word.

At the Rosenheim mansion, Heinrich was already in a storm.

The news had just broken—Wolfsbane won the collaboration with Eden Group—and Katarina was livid.

She stood in the center of the marble hall, fury flashing in her eyes like lightning.

“You useless bastard!” she screamed. “I told Eden Group if they gave the collaboration to the Rosenheim family, you’d make a fine Chief of Artificial Intelligence—that the Eden Group would be lucky to have you!”

“But they refused! They gave the deal to the Wolfsbanes instead! They refused you, Heinrich! You’re worthless—nothing you do has any value, does it?”

Katarina hurled the wine bottle across the room. It shattered against Heinrich’s head, spraying red wine like blood across the marble floor.

“You must’ve helped that ex-wife of yours win the collaboration behind my back, didn’t you?” she shouted, her face twisted with rage. “There’s no way Sofina could’ve gotten that collaboration without someone helping her!”

“I didn’t help her!” Heinrich barked back. “Maybe her husband did!”
